Project: An interview with an artist.

Artist:  Maryam Al-Souali

Date: April 2012

Maryam Al-Souali Abu Zaid is a young plastic artist from Morocco. She went to the worlds of Impressionism and Surrealism. Her childish world experiences adult worlds to see if her dreamy child world is convinced of theirs. She is close to graduating from the Fine Arts Institute in Tetouan, but she also studies French language and literature. Her last exhibition was held in Rabat at the National Theater / Mohamed V from the twenty-third to the thirtieth of April 2012. She was interviewed by the plastic artist Zahra Zeroui :

Q1 / What does painting mean to you ?

A: Plastic art has been an integral part of my life since I was three years old. I remember well those moments when I used to paint on my father's books or on the walls of our house, when I could not find paper. My mom also tells me how impressed I was to see the beauty of the world of colors from my earliest years.

Q 2/ What are the influences and in which school does Maryam find herself ?

A: By entering the Higher Institute of Fine Arts of Tetouan, most of my time is devoted to plastic art. There, I met a group of artists from Morocco and outside. In the first place, I discovered and loved the half-century history of the North School and its pioneers and their art, who always felt that we are living under the influence of the same artistic spirit and under the roof of the same sky.

Q3 / Most of your paintings reflect dream and nature worlds, why ?

A: Man and nature are two basic themes in my paintings. The presence of man in nature, his unity and his perfect harmony with it, is a symbol of primitive beauty, peace, simplicity and innocence, which makes the character of the dream overwhelming my pigmentation. My paintings are mostly daydreams. I also prefer the large dimensions that allow me to combine various technologies in one painting.

In the end, I am at the beginning of my artistic career, as plastic art is a "very long path" and "an endless travel" while "time is short," as the poet Baudelaire says. I am also well aware that plastic art is not only a matter of talent, but also diligence, rigidity and depth in research, a search for perfection and perfection that cannot, in all cases, be reached. The artist, then, has to live with this fact that was originally the reason for his development and advancement.

Q4 / Why did you decide to study French language and literature?

A: Arabic is my language, and if I want to know the other, I know his language first.

Q5 / I read the news of the Palestine International Foundation competition for the Ismail Shamout Prize in "Oud Al-Nad" magazine. Why did you decide to participate?

A / The award is not primarily my goal. My goal is to stand by the Palestinian poetical or dyed text. Creativity has to resist and spread reality across the worlds of painting or poem. Isn't that what Picasso's Guernica did?

An interview with an artist

Project: An interview with an artist.

Artist:  Janet Sobhi Karkar

Date:  October 1927

Janet Sobhi Karkar Bishara is a plastic artist. Janet was born on the thirteenth of October 1927. She is 43 years old. She is from Jerusalem. She has lived in Nasiriyah for 4 years. She is married and has three daughters. She finished her high school education at "Mar Mitri High School" - Jerusalem. After that, she learned several courses in different subjects: arts and plastic art (drawing) and others. She is considered at the forefront of plastic artists in the country in terms of the artistic level and the depth of the creative experience, and in her human and philosophical vision through her wonderful, distinctive and mysterious paintings and drawings, which reflect many aspects of the reality of life, the mysteries of existence and metaphysical dimensions, and she talks about many philosophical, humanitarian, social and other topics and issues. We have this special, prolonged and interesting meeting with her:

Question 1: At the beginning of this meeting, we want to talk to us about the beginnings with   painting. When did you start practicing this beautiful hobby and how did you enter this field ?

- Answer 1 - I started from a very young generation as a child .. and later I began to work and work on developing and refining this talent until the age of 22 years when I became a well-known and professional plastic artist, and I also studied this topic in several institutes of plastic art to develop talent and I always painted and started I participate in many art exhibitions later on . I love this field so much that it made me enter and continue in it and devote a lot of my time and energies to it.

Question 2:The difficulties and obstacles that you faced at the beginning of your artistic career ??

Answer 2 - The thing that limits the artist’s giving, especially the painter, is the failure of society and people to respond adequately to plastic art..and also the type of art school plays a role in the extent of people's acceptance and response to artistic works. I belong to the expressionist school radiating with philosophy and full of mystery and symbols, and of course not all people understand or rather taste this type of art. The most important thing for me is that I deal with art as art and the service of meaningful and true art as a sacred message before I satisfy the tastes and mentality of some persons or entities and certain types of society who tend to the easy, the clear and the superficial and do not bother to study, analyze and properly understand the paintings in their meanings and goals. It carries a message of idealism, dimensions, and philosophical, human and social goals .. These were the most important obstacles and difficulties that I faced and I am still suffering from.

Question 3: You are now a famous and well-known artist locally and abroad .. How did you reach all this fame and wide spread?

Answer 3 - I arrived thanks to my effort, my fatigue, my faith in my message, my persistence in giving, and thanks to my creative level . It happened that an artist from Jordan whose name is (Nazeer Awawla), President of the "Al-Balqa Association" - Jordan - held an exhibition of plastic plastic hands and drawing courses, and I participated in it and it was the starting point. To fame and widespread.After that, I also set up many art exhibitions at home through the "creativity" association and other independent exhibitions, including a personal exhibition and an exhibition in the church, and through these exhibitions, I became famous and achieved wide fame locally. After that, I participated in exhibitions of plastic art in France and Morocco, in Amman and Irbid in Jordan, and in Nablus, Tel Aviv and others.and from which I achieved very wide fame locally and outside the country and became known to all. There are art critics, locally and abroad, who have praised my artwork, my paintings, my drawings, and their level a lot, as well as how the colors are used, mixed and shaped.
